So in this blog entry I’m gonna share some of the little things I picked up or noticed while in London. Most of them are quite random and don’t really fit into other blog posts so I thought I would just make a list of everything that comes to mind.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
British people will always say sorry if you run into them, no matter whose fault it is.<\/p>\n
British people mostly say cheers instead of thank you.<\/p>\n
While the Thames is spelled with an a and a th it is still pronounced the same as in German, except for the e sound at the end.<\/p>\n
British people thank the bus driver a lot of the time.<\/p>\n
At a lot of bus stops you have to stick your hand out in order for the bus to stop.<\/p>\n
British television is awful from what I’ve seen.<\/p>\n
I regularly ride a bus that only has a door at the front, none in the back.<\/p>\n
Every form of public transportation has a few seats that are marked as priority seats for disabled or elderly people.<\/p>\n
Most tickets for public transport are handled electronically.<\/p>\n
You can just swipe your credit card on those electronic checkpoints to get a ticket.<\/p>\n
Most of the shopping in grocery stores is done at self checkout stations.<\/p>\n
Almost everything that costs less than 30\u00a3 is paid for via contact less card or even with your phone.<\/p>\n
Public transport here is expensive.<\/p>\n
Every time there is a football match of a local team every pub is gonna be packed.<\/p>\n
Most of the juice you buy here is just concentrate and you really have to look closely if you want real juice.<\/p>\n
They have a lot of different companies handling public transport.<\/p>\n
That’s all I can think of for now, I might add some other things later if I remember something I really want to put in here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
